It has nothing to do with the isapnp support in the kernel. The  /proc/bus/pnp is created by the pcmcia-cs driver if it is compiled with pnp support. If you use the 2.4 kernel and you don't have /proc/bus/pnp, you have

- a pcmcia-cs installed and use the pcmcia modules that are part of the kernel since kernel 2.4 (Solution: don't use the pcmcia drivers from the kernel. Recompile you kernel without PCMCIA/Cardbus support and recompile pcmcia-cs)

- a pcmcia-cs without pnp support (Solution: recompile your pcmcia-cs with pnp support)

- no pcmcia-cs installed at all.
